Rich maple, honey, syrupy stewed fruits. Molasses and a good deal of vanilla butter cream.
Thick mouthfeel. Some heat, but not punishing. Peppery clove, vanilla and molasses are prominent flavors. There's a faint fruitiness, but it doesn't scream PX/Oloroso sherry.
Medium length, some heat. Lots of pepper with some really weird herbal flavors rising. Its minty and loaded with spicy pepper and clove.
This is very apparently high rye and was sort of a wild ride, but I dug it in the end. This is easily the best I've tasted from them, as their other products were fine at best.
